Origins and Evolution

Sanctum, originally established as Black Onyx in the Spring of 2024, emerged from a vision to cultivate a thriving kink community in the Seattle area. The founders, inspired by their experiences and a desire to create inclusive spaces, sought to facilitate events that would cater to the diverse needs and interests of kink-minded individuals. While the name has evolved, the core values of strength, stability, and community remain at the heart of Sanctum's mission.
